TORONTO -143
TORONTO @ SAN JOSE | 3/03 | 10:30 PM EST
2:51 PM
My model says that the Maple Leafs win this game outright over 70 percent of the time, cover the spread 92 percent of the time, so you're getting great value playing them here. Toronto has won three straight contests, including two away from home as it begins a three-game trek through California. The Maple Leafs posted a 4-1 home victory over the Sharks in October to extend their winning streak in the series to four games. Expect the run to continue.
6-1 IN LAST 7 NHL ML PICKS | +439

GEORGIA ST. +1
LITTLE ROCK @ GEORGIA ST. | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
2:41 PM
My model says that the Panthers cover the spread almost 70 percent of the time, so you're getting great value playing them at this point spread. Georgia State owns an 11-2 record at home and has had Little Rock's number of late. The Panthers have won seven of the last 10 meetings between the schools, including each of the last four. Take Georgia State.

OVER 147.5
LOYOLA-MD. @ LEHIGH | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
10:47 AM
Lehigh is averaging only 6.9 offensive rebounds per game and this, along with the fact that Loyola is coming off a 74-71 loss, points to the Over. The Greyhounds have reeled off 20 straight Unders as an underdog coming off a loss when they are facing a team that has averaged less than 9.15 offensive boards. Six of them are from this season. The Mountain Hawks have 11 straight Overs as a favorite following a win in which they shot worse than 44 percent from beyond the arc. Lehigh has gone over by an average of 18 points in this spot. We are on the Over.
25-16 IN LAST 41 CBB PICKS | +735
OVER 234
WASHINGTON @ SACRAMENTO | 3/03 | 10:00 PM EST
10:44 AM
The Wizards are 13-0 to the Over as underdogs off a road game in which Bradley Beal took more than 20 shots, sailing over the number by an average of 24.58 ppg. Washington is also 12-0 O/U on the road with less than two days' rest off a win as a road favorite, eclipsing the number by an average of 16.38 ppg. This number is a lot higher that is was in the Kings’ last game against the Pistons on Sunday. However, Sacramento has reeled off eight straight Overs as a home favorite off a home game when the total is at least 15 points more than their last game. The value is on the Over.
TORONTO -158
TORONTO @ SAN JOSE | 3/03 | 10:30 PM EST
10:42 AM
Road favorites coming off a win and at least two days of rest are 29-8 while road favorites against non-conference opponents with at least two days of rest are 25-10. Both of these indicate a play on the Maple Leafs in this position. Toronto is 8-3 this season as a road favorite coming off a win. The Sharks are 2-5 as a home underdog against an opponent that is coming off a victory. We are on the Maple Leafs.

MICHIGAN ST. @ PENN ST. | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
The Spartans are putting it together at the right time and starting to resemble the team that was preseason No. 1. Freshman Malik Hall didn't miss a shot in MSU's win at Maryland, and he'll enter this critical game confident. Penn State has lost three of four, failing to cover each time. Back the Spartans.

TORONTO @ PHOENIX | 3/03 | 9:00 PM EST
Despite the Raptors' recent struggles, my simulations show them covering nearly two-thirds of the time at Phoenix. The Suns have lost three straight, including two embarrassing defeats to Golden State and Detroit. Toronto is in another class and has beaten Phoenix five straight times. Lay the points.

The Suns have lost three straight games, including embarrassing losses to the Pistons and Warriors at home. The Raptors have lost three straight, although two of those were against tough opponents in the Bucks and Nuggets. Although the Raptors are dealing with injury injuries, it’s worth noting the Suns losing their last three games also coincided with Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) going on the shelf. Their depth behind him is sorely lacking. Back the Raptors to cover.

SAN ANTONIO -3.5
SAN ANTONIO @ CHARLOTTE | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
1:11 PM
Both of these teams are dealing with injuries. The Hornets will be without without Devonte’ Graham (ankle) and the Spurs have already ruled out LaMarcus Aldridge (shoulder). The Hornets have only played one game without Graham all season, a 39-point loss to the Pacers. The Spurs still have DeMar DeRozan and Trey Lyles has been playing well with Aldridge out, so I’ll take the Spurs to cover.

BOSTON @ TAMPA BAY | 3/03 | 7:30 PM EST
1:13 PM
This is a matchup between the highest scoring home team in the league in the Lightning at 3.94 goals per game, and the second-best road goals against team in the league in the Bruins at 2.53 goals per game. However, the Bruins still score the sixth most road goals in the league at 3.22 goals per game. The Lightning have the second best home power play in the league at 29.3% and the Bruins have the fifth best road power play at 23.7%. Lightning home games are 21-10 with the over this season and they have hit seven straight overs overall, take the over.

ANAHEIM @ CHICAGO | 3/03 | 8:30 PM EST
1:11 PM
The Hawks only average 2.83 goals per game at home this season while the Ducks only average 2.48 goals per game on the road. The Ducks are tied for the fifth worst road power play in the league at 15.2% effectiveness while the Blackhawks have the fourth worst home power play at 13.5% effectiveness. Take the under.

SAN ANTONIO @ CHARLOTTE | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
The Spurs just ended a three-game home stand after the annual eight-game road trip. Now they’re on the road again and have to play with no rest after traveling all the way to the East Coast for a game at Charlotte. It’s a bad beat for sure, but I’ll take the Hornets here as the Spurs will be without LaMarcus Aldridge (shoulder) again. They are 1-3 ATS in their last four (0-4 ATS). Charlotte is the play.

PITTSBURGH -1.5
OTTAWA @ PITTSBURGH | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
The Penguins have dropped six straight, their longest losing streak in eight years, and have been outscored 24-8 in the process. The Senators have recorded just three wins all time at PPG Paints Arena since it opened in 2010, 3-22 in 25 games. The Penguins have won eight in a row at row and recorded at least a point in 11 consecutive home games against the Senators. This looks like a great spot for the Penguins on the puck line (-1.5, -118).

TEXAS +7
TEXAS @ OKLAHOMA | 3/03 | 9:00 PM EST
Texas coach Shaka Smart was the odds-on favorite to be the first casualty of the off-season coaching carousel. Now, he might be just a win or two away from leading the Longhorns to an unlikely NCAA Tournament berth. The injury-ravaged club has somehow won four straight by double figures and forge a .500 record in Big 12 play. Oklahoma has an identical record and is similarly fighting for an at-large berth. But Smart has gotten the best of Oklahoma for most of his Texas tenure and taking the points is the way to go;.

TENNESSEE +8.5
TENNESSEE @ KENTUCKY | 3/03 | 9:00 PM EST
The Wildcats have past all tests over the past few weeks to build an eight-game winning streak. One of them was a 13-point road victory over Tennessee. Up until the final two minutes, the Volunteers managed to stay within a five-point deficit. With increased intensity and pressure on the Wildcats, expect the Volunteers to fare better. Grab Tennessee.
CLEV. ST. +7.5
CLEV. ST. @ OAKLAND | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
In the first round of the Horizon tournament, Cleveland State will meet Oakland for the third time this season. The Vikings lost both matchups but played competitive at Oakland in a 79-74 loss. This line appears a bit high. Grab the improving Vikings, who are led by recently awarded Horizon League Coach of the Year Dennis Gates.
W. MICHIGAN +2.5
E. MICHIGAN @ W. MICHIGAN | 3/03 | 7:00 PM EST
Western Michigan’s young lineup has started to blossom. Over their last two games, the Broncos have shot 63 percent from 3-point range (24-38). That’s key facing an Eastern Michigan team that plays primarily zone defense and dares opponents to shoot the 3. Expect a different outcome Tuesday for the Broncos than when they scored 51 points against Eastern Michigan in the first meeting.

IOWA -5
PURDUE @ IOWA | 3/03 | 9:00 PM EST
Purdue has buried Iowa the last three times they've met by at least 16 points. They met last month at West Lafayette and Purdue won 104-68. So this is a huge revenge spot for Iowa, which has lost just once at home while going 11-2-2 ATS. Purdue has been awful on the road this season (3-8) and has covered just once in its last eight road games. Iowa pours it on, gets the cover Tuesday.
OKLAHOMA CITY +3.5
L.A. CLIPPERS @ OKLAHOMA CITY | 3/03 | 8:00 PM EST
The Thunder had a five-game win streak snapped at Milwaukee on Friday, an embarrassing 133-86 loss and now they’re 0-3 ATS in their last three. OKC has covered both meetings this season, winning 118-112 as a one-point home favorite in December when Kawhi Leonard didn’t play. Danilo Gallinari and his 19 ppg are expected back Tuesday. Back the Thunder.
